I'm just going to preface this post by saying that everything about this game is going to suck. But we're going to preview it anyways because why not. The Bruins (5-6-0) will face off the Buffalol Sabres (2-8-0) in a much needed "throw away" game, if you will.

I say throw away game because it's the Sabres. The Bruins needed a relatively easy opponent tonight after the loss to the Wild on Tuesday and the defensive woes that go by the name of Chara and Krug. I don't know if anyone saw the picture of Krug's finger but let me just say it's one of the most unpleasant things I've seen in quite some time. So now not only are the Bruins without Chara, we're going to be lacking Krug for at least 3 weeks.

On top of all of this, Brad Marchand may or may not be injured right now. Marchand left practice early on Wednesday and did not return, to which Coach said he must have tweaked something. Marchand will be a game time decision.

To deal with our two definitive losses, the Bruins called up Morrow again (ugh) and David Warsofsky, who has some experience with the Bruins from last season and will hopefully be Coach's choice as a line insert. If Marchand is not ready to go, Fraser will play in his place. So, all in all, it's going to be a long, and interesting, night.

The Sabres have a few injuries themselves, including Patrick Kaleta, but this injury is more than a week old so it's hard to say for sure whether or not we will see these two play tonight. Not that I think having a fully healthy team will do much for them, but I guess it's still worth noting.

Projected Bruins Line Up

Team Stats

Team: I mean, it's the Sabres and they still suck just as bad as they did last year so there's no surprise there. The Sabres are coming into this game after 4-0 loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs on Tuesday (again, not a huge surprise). The last time the Bruins played the Sabres was on October 18th, when the Bruins on 4-0.

Players: There is literally nothing of note to say about the Sabres except maybe how last game they managed to get off 10 whole shots. Not in one period, but one whole game. Only one player had more than one shot.

Goalie: Jhonas Enroth will be in net for the Sabres tonight. Enroth has played in 6 games with a 1-5-0 record, a 3.13 GAA and a .914 SV%. So he's basically a joke.

Team: The Bruins are coming off a disappointing loss to the Minnesota Wild on Tuesday that involved a typical Bruins style third period slump. The Bruins need to use this game against Buffalo to build some extra momentum, considering our current deficiencies. And hopefully this game will also help the Bruins remember that you can't give up in the third period. Hopefully.

Players: Griffith is coming off a three point game against the Wild on Tuesday, one of which he managed to obtain while imitating Bobby Orr.

Goalie: It looks like Svedberg will be in net tonight for the Bruins. Svedberg has started in 3 games and has a 1-2 record with a 1.57 GAA and a .951 SV%.
